After race at Curragh Sun, 24th May, 2015 (1st)

He's very versatile. He'd a great run at Punchestown and won well at Limerick. He's a dual purpose horse and he'll tip away. He got two miles well, and hopefully he'll step up in trip over hurdles. I thought that was a good performance.

A J Martin

After race at Limerick Tue, 12th May, 2015 (1st)

on his run the last day he was entitled to win and he dug deep today. He has a bit of toe and that won the day for him and he'll tip away quietly in conditions races and on the flat. He's not yet a Galway Hurdle type horse as he hasn't the experience and is only a second season novice.

A J Martin

After race at Galway Sun, 3rd Aug, 2014 (1st)

He battled on well and it was a good performance from horse and jockey,.

A J Martin

After race at Leopardstown Fri, 6th Jun, 2014 (1st)

He's a nice horse and should make into a hurdle horse. He has the size and strength.
